Chapter 754: Chapter 466: Return to Qingzhou! (Filling the hole)_2
“Before the turmoil at the Imperial City, the court’s investigation was so strict, that it could have possibly reached , hence I took the opportunity to ask for so days off and also ca to see you.”
“Sit.”
Chen Yuan made himself comfortable without hesitation.
“Where is Senior Moluo?”
Jiang He asked.
“Still recovering from his injuries.”
Moluo’s injuries were more severe than Chen Yuan’s. Although he had given him quite so guidance at the beginning, he had remained silent most of the ti after the visit of Pu Xian Bodhisattva to the Demon Suppressing Cave.
Chen Yuan understood the gravity of the situation and therefore, without a significant crisis, he would never take the initiative to awaken Moluo.
After all, the better Moluo’s injuries recovered, the more confident he would be.
Jiang He nodded slightly upon hearing this and asked no further.
“How are your injuries, Brother Jiang?”
“I will also need to slowly recover over so ti.”
Jiang He answered truthfully.
Apart from Moluo and Chen Yuan, among those Daoists of the Divine Palace who had participated in the war, his injuries were the most severe—initially invisible, but internally deep.
They even touched the Origin.
It was only because of his stable foundation that he didn’t end up dead or crippled, unlike others who might fight Pu Xian Bodhisattva.
When he ntioned “so ti,” he implied at least half a year to fully recover.
What a pity he didn’t have a beloved to provide him Spiritual Objects.
Su Ziyue, that fellow, certainly had plenty of good stuff…
Of course, he could have exchanged for them if he had asked, but he did not wish to do so. The great battle had not only brought him injuries but also considerable assistance, making it a good opportunity to reflect on the situation during his recovery.
Perhaps, as Senior Moluo had previously ntioned, he might turn misfortune into a blessing.
“No need for that, this ti I ca specifically to help with your injuries,” Chen Yuan said with a mysterious smile.
Jiang He stared at him, and a mont later spoke:
“Speak plainly.”
“Brother Jiang, what do you think this is?”
With a flash of light in Chen Yuan’s hand, a palm-sized Jade Box appeared and he casually opened it.
“Sixth-Turn Golden Pill!”
Jiang He’s eyes lit up as he instantly recognized the pill.
“Exactly, it’s the Sixth-Turn Golden Pill. With this, the injuries on your body won’t be much of a problem,” Chen Yuan smiled.
“How did you obtain this?”
Surprised at first, Jiang He suddenly frowned and asked.
This item did not seem like sothing Chen Yuan would currently be able to procure.
“Given by soone else?”
“Who?”
Chen Yuan calmly took a sip of the Spiritual Tea:
“What do you think, Brother Jiang?”
“Is it her?”
Jiang He’s gaze shifted, his heart sinking.
“Yes.”
Looking at the rare Spirit Pill in front of him, Jiang He took a deep breath:
“Did she ask you to deliver any ssage?”
“Yes.”
“Tell .”
“Sister-in-law… Daoist Li said, she took this item casually from her ho, it might be sowhat useful for you.”
“What else?”
“She said she’s already over forty, her pri years long past, and she doesn’t want to wait ineffectually any longer. Three years, either you marry her, or…”
“Or what?”
“Or, she will leave the Capital and hide herself in Jianghu.”
Jiang He slowly closed his eyes upon hearing this, seemingly pondering sothing. After a long while, he opened his eyes and carelessly said:
“Do you know about our situation?”
“Sowhat.”
“Want to hear it?”
“Yes!!!”
Chen Yuan’s eyes suddenly brightened.
“Forget it, there’s nothing much to say,” Jiang He added.
Chen Yuan: “???”
If there’s nothing much, what were you asking just now?
“Do you think I should marry her?”
“Don’t ask about your own affairs.”
Unaware of the full story, although Chen Yuan very much wished for Li Hongshuang’s wish to co true, dealing with those four words, he didn’t want to talk much. Of course, he was also sowhat retaliating for Jiang He teasing him just now.
“Do you think that as a Martial Artist practicing Dao, the word ‘love’… could be a hindrance?”
“With no woman in heart, drawing a sword is inherently divine!”
Chen Yuan stated solemnly.
“Hm?”
“Chen has always kept himself from the allure of won, Brother Jiang, you’re asking the wrong person.”
“Lady Xu of Tangshan, Miss Shen of the Goddess Palace, and… Daoist of Seven Emotions. Oh, and I heard you have so association with Princess Pingyang in the Capital?”
Jiang He had an expression of disbelief.
Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow. Was this the sa aloof Jiang He?
Why such a contrast?
Uh… contrast?
After contemplating for a mont, Chen Yuan plainly said:
“Chen has always stayed away from the allure of won, as you know, but… alas, the allure cos to .”
Jiang He smiled, nodding:
“Alright, I understand.”
“Understand what?”
“Marry her!”
“When?”
Chen Yuan was taken aback by Jiang He’s straightforward acceptance, indeed a bit beyond his expectations; he had thought Jiang He would hesitate more.
“Didn’t she say within three years? Let’s wait a bit longer then.”
“Wait until when?”
“Until… I can openly defeat her father.”
“Alright, I’ll help you then.”
“Deal.”
“Deal!”
Jiang He stood up, holding the Sixth-Turn Golden Pill and standing with his hands behind his back, said quietly:
“Then you better break through to be a True Monarch soon.”
“Sure, definitely before you marry, how about we go storm Shangjing City together then?”
“You’re confident within three years?”
Chen Yuan also smiled, knowing who he was—a person who had worked his way up to this day through the efforts of cultivating at the Qi Fortune Altar, and then softly said:
“I think it’s too long…”
…
…
After eting Jiang He in Qingzhou City, he didn’t stay too long; in fact… after saying those words, he left imdiately, next stop, Nanling Prefecture.
